Renée Zellweger took a surprising undercover job before filming Bridget Jones



In just a few short weeks, Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy will land in cinemas, and it’s safe to say that everyone who grew up with the frazzled Brit is very excited. Renée Zellweger is reprising the iconic role for the fourth time after almost a decade, and although Colin Firth won’t be back to play Mark Darcy (sob), we will see Hugh Grant returning as Daniel Cleaver and One Day star Leo Woodall is making his Bridgetverse debut.

And while the plot has been a huge point of interest for fans (with Hugh claiming it’s going to be ‘very sad’), in an interview with Vogue Renée opened up about the secret undercover job she took ahead of filming in order to prepare for the role. For context, before the first film’s release in 2001, Renée got a job at publishing house Picador as a means of method acting, to perfect her British accent and immerse herself in the culture. Under an alias, she explained that none of her colleagues even realised she was a Hollywood star.
